I Loved You for Ten Years, and You Took Me for Granted. Why Are You Crying Now That I'm Leaving the Country?

When I was fifteen, my brother and parents died in a car accident. My future sister-in-law took me in at the Liu family home.

Qingmei was seven years older than me, the most beautiful woman in Jiangcheng and the eldest daughter of the Liu family.

The Liu family treated me like a jinx, a burden, a stray dog, and wanted to drive me out. She stood up to them all and kept me there.

Over the next ten years, she used my Lin family's business connections to land one major deal after another, gradually becoming president of the Liu Group.

I got into Qingbei University, completed both my bachelor's and master's degrees, and became the top student in Qingbei's architecture department.

But I was keeping a secret too: on the day I graduated, I planned to propose to Qingmei and ask her to be my bride.

Today, the graduation banquet arrived right on schedule, but she stood before me with her arm linked through that of a man I'd never seen before.
